Sandor Caplan
CAPLAN: Sandor Caplan. I lost my brother today, the 28th of November, 2023. His name was Sandor Caplan. At 85, he went out for his daily walk and was found on the ground, unresponsive, later dying as a result of heart failure. He was raised in Pittsburgh, Stanton Heights neighborhood, attending Sunnyside Grade School on McCandless Avenue, then on to Peabody High School and Penn State University. While pursuing a career in physics, he continued on to the University of Pittsburgh where he completed his master’s degree in physics. After marriage to Hyla Sadowsky he moved to New Jersey, securing work at the David Sarnoff RCA laboratory in West Windsor Township, New Jersey. His career path led to the study of solar panels. The details of the new technology required him to travel to Harbin China. He will be sorely missed by his wife, brother, three children and their children, as well as numerous friends and business associates. PJC
